My name is Mahesh Bansa, and I am the founder of Beyond Destiny, a photography business based in Colombo, Sri Lanka, with nearly 12 years of experience in photography. Although Beyond Destiny is well known for wedding photography, I usually describe myself as a Family Photographer. To me, photography has always been about more than capturing a single wedding day. Our journey with a couple may begin with their engagement or wedding, but very often it continues as their family grows. We may photograph their wedding through Beyond Destiny, later capture their children and family milestones through Minions by BD - made with love by Beyond Destiny, while Colombo Wedding Films (CWF) adds another dimension to their story through videography. Over the years, this journey has also grown into a team effort.

It was so stress free to work with you guys and I love how much attention was given to each detail and each photograph! You guys set an example to all the vendors in the wedding industry cuz of the professionalism you guys know how to calm not just the couple but everyone around as well
Truly so happy to have chosen y’all and wishing beyond destiny to keep being the BEST
We had two events, and they did such an amazing job of giving each one its own look, feel and style. From the very beginning, booking, planning and coordinating everything, right through to the actual event days, the entire process was an absolute breeze.
Bansa and his team are honestly the best! They are incredibly patient, easy going and SO funny, which I genuinely think is the perfect combination for wedding vendors. My husband and I are definitely not people who naturally take lots of photos, so we probably weren’t the easiest couple to work with, but they made us feel so comfortable and made the whole process feel effortless rather than awkward or forced.
And somehow, they caught EVERYTHING! The little moments, the emotional moments, the fun moments, the completely random moments and all the memories in between. Looking back at everything they captured really feels like reliving the days all over again.
Another thing that really impressed us was how FAST they were with everything. We didn’t have to wait forever to start seeing our pictures and videos, which was honestly such a nice feeling when you’re still on that post wedding high and dying to relive everything! The turnaround was incredibly quick without compromising on the quality of the work.
They were also so willing to work around all my requests, even the slightly crazy last minute ones! They managed to get a trailer from our first event ready for us to show at our second event, which was only THREE DAYS later. They even squeezed in a super quick second outfit shoot for us and made sure we got all the shots we wanted without spending ages away from our guests. It meant we could actually go back, enjoy our reception and have fun rather than feeling like the whole evening was one long photoshoot! Nothing ever felt like too much trouble.
A huge shoutout to Dilki as well for being amazing behind the scenes! She was always so quick to answer my calls and messages, helped me with everything I needed, and made sure everything on the backend ran smoothly so Bansa and the team could deliver exactly what I wanted.
My husband and I genuinely cannot thank the entire team enough for everything they did for us. They didn’t just give us beautiful photos and videos. They captured the personality, chaos, laughter and emotions of our wedding celebrations perfectly.
Hands down recommend this team to anyone looking for photography and videography for their wedding or any special event. You will be in the BEST hands!
We were genuinely so lucky to have such a wonderful team with us on our special day. From start to finish, you made everything so easy and comfortable for us, and we truly appreciated all the effort and care you put in.
We would choose you guys over and over again without a doubt! It was such a pleasure working with you, and we’re definitely looking forward to working with you again in the future.
Thank you so much for everything, and wishing the whole team all the very best! Highly recommended!
The entire team put in so much effort and worked incredibly hard to make our wedding day special. A special thank you to Mr. Bansa for being so friendly, professional, and easy to work with. We genuinely enjoyed every moment with the team.
Another thing we really appreciated was how quickly we received everything. Without having to wait for a long time, we received our wedding photos, albums, and everything we were promised. The quality was amazing, and we were so happy with the final results.
Thank you, Beyond Destiny, for giving us such beautiful memories that we will cherish forever.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for a talented, friendly, and professional wedding photography team!
